Seems logical with the lefties coming up. It's time. Get him a taste before the AS break, temporarily option someone, then make a deal at the deadline to jettison someone like Urias. -

I couldn’t help myself, I checked the replies and that guy on Twitter is saying it’s a rumor from the Mayo family but didn’t say where and he said it’s not anyone verified. So absolutely wouldn’t put any stock in that. That said - I do see some logic here if there are a string of LHP coming up. Send Cowser to AAA for some more regular ABs, get Mayo up for the LHP and buy some time. Mullins plays CF and maybe Mateo is the backup CF or starts there vs the LHP (with Mayo 3B and Westburg 2B). The trade deadline is in 3 weeks. If they are committed to trading Urias, they could call up Cowser after the minimum AAA stint and DFA Urias, and then IIRC the DFA period to trade Urias is something like a week and would run through the trade deadline. They’d lose some leverage in trading him after a DFA, but that way they’ll know they will either get something for him then or there just never would have been enough demand across the league to move him. -

As much of a crapshoot as the playoffs are, I'd say a 5% boost is worth quite a bit. -

Let's say he adds a quality starter and a quality bullpen arm. What does that do to the O's odds to win a WS? Maybe a 5% bump? What is that worth in prospect capital? -
Ok. Eric Fedde would be a rotation upgrade at a much lower cost and you'd still have a chance at a title. No doubt, a healthy Skubal gives you a better chance. -

Seems like Elias is always one step below the fan base but maybe things will be different with Rubenstein. I hope for at least a medium splash. I have confidence we won't pull a Glenn Davis type of deal and get robbed but we may not get the Crochet/Skubal level ace. -

I like the optimism! I went with option 2, but I have had moments of more optimism and also less. So I thought it would be interesting to see where people are right now. I agree that he cannot have another deadline like last year or, god forbid, worse. Anything is possible, though.
